Frances Young explores the ways in which the earliest theologians
and preachers read the Bible, and seeks to recover a sense of the
importance of the spiritual meaning of the text, as much as the
literal or historic meaning. She attempts to bridge a gap between
the work of biblical scholars and what is practised and believed by
faithful church-goers, by drawing on the wisdom of the church
Fathers and exploring their relationship with scripture. Brokenness
and Blessing brings together Frances Young's years of work as a
scholar in the field of Biblical Studies, and as a preacher, as
well as her personal experiences of caring for a son with profound
learning disabilities and her journey with him. What emerges is a
spirituality which offers both a realistic view of the human
condition as well as 'the wonderful gift of grace which brings hope
of transformation'.
